Cover Reveal: Awakening by Christy Dorrity (The Geis #1)

Dun, Dun, Dun.... Here is the cover! Enjoy!

. . .because some Celtic stories won’t be contained in myth.
A little magic has always run in sixteen-year-old McKayla McCleery’s
family—at least that’s what she’s been told. McKayla’s eccentric Aunt
Avril travels the world as a clairvoyant for the FBI, and her mother can
make amazing delicacies out of the most basic of ingredients. But
McKayla doesn’t think for a second that the magic is real—it’s just good
storytelling. Besides, McKayla doesn’t need magic. She just moved to
beautiful Star Valley, Wyoming, and already she has an amazing best
friend, a solo in her upcoming ballet recital, and the gorgeous guy in
her physics class keeps looking her way.
When an unexpected fascination with Irish dance leads McKayla to
seek instruction from the mute, crippled, janitor at her high school,
she learns that her family is not the only one with unexplained
abilities.
After Aunt Avril comes to the valley in pursuit of the supernatural
killer that she has been chasing her entire career, people in the valley
begin disappearing, and the lives of those McKayla holds most dear are
threatened. When an ancient curse, known as a geis, awakens powers that
defy explanation, McKayla is forced to come to terms with what is real
and what is fantasy.
A thrilling first novel, Awakening is a gripping contemporary fantasy rife with magic, romance, and mystery.
